Among the topics he touched on were dealing with a quick turnaround, playing Thursday nights, providing a spark and defensive growth. The show can be seen live at The Clubhouse Sports Pub & Grill in downtown Appleton or at clubhouselive.com.

Q: Mike McCarthy said in Monday's news conference that preparations for Thursday's game against Seattle actually began last week. Did you guys get a sneak peek at the game plan before you faced Miami on Sunday? Or was the entire focus on the Dolphins first and foremost?

Jones: Our first time seeing the game plan was (Monday), but it's stuff we've been running. Tweak some stuff here and there. But other than that, just go out there and line up and play ball.

Q: What are the mental challenges you face in having to prepare quickly with a Thursday game coming up?

Jones: That's the thing about this league. You can't really enjoy a victory too long. It's a 24-hour rule - 24 hours and you get over it and then get to the next opponent. Same thing with a loss.

Q: Do you wish the NFL would do away with Thursday night games?

Jones: I'm not a real big fan of it, but who am I to give my opinion on something that won't be changed? It's like you play a whole game Sunday - it takes at least 48 hours for a body to recover. Then you've got to go play again. But the back end of it, you get, like, three days off. So that's the good part. So I see the big picture in it.

Q: You finished with five tackles and played 61 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Dolphins. Do you see yourself as an energy guy when you're out there?

Jones: I do. I'm a nice dude off the field, but I just transform between those lines. I'm just different. I can't even explain my passion and my love for the game. I don't know if it's visible or not - people say it is. But I think I bring good energy. And it's contagious. People can feed off of it.

Q: You limited the Dolphins to four field goals, marking the second time this season you've prevented a team from scoring a touchdown. How high is the ceiling for the defense as you evolve as a unit, work new guys in and continue to become more comfortable with defensive coordinator Mike Pettine's scheme?

Jones: Definitely still a work in progress. We haven't made it yet, obviously. But it's a lot of talent on this defense, from top to bottom. So the ceiling is high - definitely. It's a lot of pieces on this defense. It's all about just putting it together now. Obviously, we have a lot of guys in and out. Our thing is building that chemistry with one another. And that starts on and off the field.
